Chicken Run
·
· Score: 2, Funny
The chicken, sunlight coruscating off its radiant yellow-white coat of feathers, approached the dark, sullen asphalt road and scrutinized it intently with its obsidian-black eyes. Every detail of the thoroughfare leapt into blinding focus: the rough texture of the surface, over which countless tires had worked their relentless tread through the ages; the innumerable fragments of stone embedded within the lugubrious mass, perhaps quarried from the great pits where the Sons of Man labored not far from here; the dull black asphalt itself, exuding those waves of heat which distort the sight and bring weakness to the body; the other attributes of the great highway too numerous to give name. And then it crossed it.
Yes, but I've heard that there is this french guy who claims that this kid with the stupiest nickname ever started cheating with an exploit he found, that let him fly and stuff, pretty funny, and they had to reset the server... but i've heard that about a couple of dozen people still have their character from before... and that this is not the first time that it happens. Apparently they just refuse to fix the security hole.
Chimpanzee 1: Help! The human's about to escape. Troy: Get your paws off me, you dirty ape! Chimpanzee 2: (gasp) He can talk! Orangutans: He can talk! He can talk! He can talk!
He can talk! He can talk! He can talk!
Troy: And I can siiiiiiiiiiing!
Chimp Nurse: Oooh! Help me, Dr. Zaius! Orangutans: Dr. Zaius! Dr. Zaius!
Dr. Zaius! Dr. Zaius!
Dr. Zaius! Dr. Zaius!
O, Dr. Zaius!
...
Troy: I hate every ape I see,
From chimpan-A to chimpanzee,
No, you'll never make a monkey out of me!
(Statue of Liberty rises)
O my God! I was wrong!
It was Earth, all along!
You've finally made a monkey,
Apes: Yes we've finally made a monkey, Troy: Yes you've & Apes: finally made a monkey out of me! Troy: I love you, Dr. Zaius!
I can't believe that no one mentioned Shankar Principles
of Quantum Mechanics. Its the only self contained book with
real QM (Dirac's notation). It great, covers all the math you need,
has good problems, and its very entertaining.
I think its better that Sakurai (its a finished book, unlike Sakurai, who
died before finishing it), and its the real QM (not the lame differential eqn
aproach).
"Researchers at IBM have used vacuum tubes to emit light, a breakthrough that could replace silicon as the foundation of chips and lead to faster computers and telecommunication equipment."
Rise of the Robots for SNES. That game was SO slow, SO boring... it changed my life. I never thought (until then) that electronic entertainment could be SO boring...
Definitely MGS for the PS1. That game was so cinematic... every character was really cool. The part that the guy has the heart attack, and I could feel the heart beating in the controller. Mantis, reading my memory card... that was impressive. Finally, the torture... it really felt like a torture to me. My arm was in pain after surving the torture, and Snake said his was too! And then on the codec "I'm going to activate the nanomachines to give you a massage". Talk about interactive!
The huge accelerator was called Superconducting Super Collider. Its purpose was different. It would reach higher energies.
This new acceleratos will only reach about 3.5GeV. Much less than FermiLab's TeV accelerator, so its mail goal is not to discover new sub-atomic particles (as those energies have been studied before) but to have biological applications.
This system is the internet version of one that has been out for a long time overthere. They used numerical IDs for the people, the most famous one being 007 James Bond.
As long as the entangled particles have a reasonable life time, you can compute with it. Also, there are many proposed Quantum Error correction techniques for that small percent that you talked about.
for this reason the whole system must be cooled to absolute zero.
That is not true. You don't need then to be entangled for the rest of the eternity, just for a few nanoseconds, so you can compute with them, and then reset them back to its entangled state for a new computation.
The problem with/. reposting news is that I'm so stupid that I read the comments again, they usually end up being the same questions, and I end up answering them again.
No. Since the three of them are entangled, they all collapse together when one is measured. The important thing about this article is that you need many entangled electrons to make most complicated calculations, the same way you want many logic gates connected to each other in a computer.

Blizzard - no one would complain, everyone would say they are just going to release it when they are ready
Hideo Kojima - it would come out, but you would play as one of the strippers
Apple - it would look really really cool, and somewhat feminine at the same time
Eidos - Duke would have big boobs
Who thought it would? really?

oh gosh! like that old game, Out of This World!
Come on! he is the one... imagine all the creative stuff he could pull of having sex inside the matrix...

with the current trend in OSs by M$, no. Each new M$ OS is designed to give you a slower computer.

Yoda: "The /. clouds everything, impossible to see the page it has become"
Obi-Wan: That's no church. It's a space station.
Han Solo: Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid.
Darth Vader: I find your lack of faith disturbing.
Darth Maul: At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge. -Darth Maul's whole script
Casting guy: "I will let you be an extra"
Me: "And you will let me see George Lucas"
Casting Guy: "I will let you see Lucas"
Lucas: "Weak minded fool! You let the fan come right to me!"
Me: "I came here, almighty Lucas, to ask you not to write another crappy love scene for Episode 3"
Lucas presses button "To the Rancoor pit!"
It must be the midiclorians!

the question is the same as "How many logic gates/bites etc do you need to make an electronic usable device?" depends on the application!
No. Since the three of them are entangled, they all collapse together when one is measured. The important thing about this article is that you need many entangled electrons to make most complicated calculations, the same way you want many logic gates connected to each other in a computer.
